Apologies if this has been asked or answered - but does the LG-EX Super GInrai come with the Headmasters that came in LG35 & LG42 in addition to Cab & Minerva?

Of course they come with their regular Headmasters too. The set will have 4 Headmasters total.

Takaratomy mall had pictures showing cab and Minerva in godbomber with the godbomber head.

All the English descriptions are frightening because the only reference cab and Minerva. The chosen prime has pictures with the combined base mode that displays all four.

Good to know.

So the answer is it does probably include all 4.

So nothing currently in regards to Trypticon QC issues vs Trypticon?

[Stuartmaximus]

nope! the hip ratchets are fine on my version, nor probs with the chest panel or tail

[o.supreme]

I've seen a couple videos on Youtube comparing Dinosaurer with Trypticon. The toys are virtually identical, but the hip issue appears not to exist in the TT version. Aside form that, and the awesome packaging, one just has to determine for themselves if the $80 price difference is worth it...

I purchased the version just to try to avoid the QC issues. The legs & chest panel have been fine so far. My biggest problem has been putting on all the tiny stickers. I've had him for 10 days & I'm maybe 60% done with the 150 or so labels. Lack of time & age related eyesight deficiencies have not helped the matter. I don't remember Fort Max having this many decals, at least not such tiny ones.

Anyway, before I ramble on for too long, I'll say it was worth it to me to pay extra for the version to purchase a product where I had less to worry about with quality issues, but I can understand why many will go with the version & do one of the leg fixes. Saving the $80 is understandable.

Since we're talking about Trypticon, anyone else hoped we'd get electronics with the Legends version? Like not necessarily a motorized walking feature, but more in the lines of lights and sounds?

Yes. I was very much hoping that - it's why I shelled out the bucks for him.

As it is, I'm a packaging junkie who appreciates differences from Hasbro's packaging, but I wish there were more.

[Stuartmaximus]

Nah...not really...but just felt kinda cheated when we saw pics of the Legends one with a darker shade on him...more kinda Gigastorm shade to him, then eventually realising that this wasn't the case(when we did get proper pics of what we actually got)

I had my wife apply the stickers for my Fort Max for me. Having a wife with small hands/fingers, a steady hand and knowledge of reading schematics (plus small tools that come in handy), was a advantage to be sure, I already asked her to help with Trypticon once I get it.

Thank you. You will never hear me brag about myself, but I will brag about my wife all day long. A great wife, excellent mother and a godsend. She has subliminally taken in all the useless Transformers & comic book knowledge I've bombarded her with and can hold her own in any geek conversation.

My hands are anything but steady these days, but I have some free time to complete stickers apps this week. & O.Supreme you're a lucky man to have someone to talk geek with & apply stickers for you. I would tell you to marry her, but you already have

[Relic0037]

Finally had a few free hours this afternoon & I was able to finish LG-43's labels (other than one tiny one that folded over on itself and got stuck to the point it became unusable).

[Nemesis Destron]

Thank you guys you have given me the peace of mind I was hoping for. I'm gonna return my version and naturally that cash will go towards an amazing Trypticon...'nuff said!

[Stuartmaximus]

just found this on another website

this is how the one should've looked...grrr... *shakes fist*

[TF-fan kev777]

Um, okay, the stove is an interesting choice of background...

[Qwan]

Um, okay, the stove is an interesting choice of background...

Large clear space with a high-contrast white background, I suppose. I use my (white) cupboard as a background all the time, it makes for a good improvised photography setup in combination with a random articulated desk-lamp I have nearby.

...Eh? Topic? what's that?

BOY I CAN'T WAIT FOR LEGENDS KUP OH BOY OH BOY
For serious he looks so great in all the (post-black & white era) stock images, he is all I could've ever wanted from an updated G1-cartoon-style Kup toy. And he's not even remotely puny either - looking at my Tribute Orion Pax, I actually think that mold is one of the larger Deluxes in TR alone, let alone the few years before that! Move over PRiD Sergeant Kup, there's a new green crotchety veteran in town! ...In another few weeks, please don't move over just yet, I still need a Kup toy until then, where are you going Sergeant come back I didn't mean it

[chuckdawg1999]

I can't wait for Kup either, Hot-Rod too. Just wish Amazon Japan would open up the pre-orders for Windblade

[Cyberpath]

Sharkticon, Hot Rod & Kup are available for pre-order again on HLJ, in case anyone's interested.

The decision was much easier with Fort Max. If you wanted a more Rebirth accurate Cerebros head, you got the edition. If you wanted a Japanese Headmasters Fortress head & a sword, the version was the one for you. Hopefully, if the next Titan class figure next year is Prediking, the two companies go in different enough directions (at least paint wise) to make the choice easy.

When did people decide they can't be bothered to type "Hasbro" or "TakaraTomy"

OK, I'll type out "Takara Tomy", but instead of , you have to type out " : - ? "
